I'm starting to plan a trip for the week after Thanksgiving. It will be my boyfriend's son's first trip. He's 8. After watching a video, he informed me he'd like to "live in Epcot" when we go to Disney. Which is good because originally he wanted to stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge and I really didn't want to. haha So anyway, I"m looking at either Boardwalk or Beach Club. I stayed at Yacht Club last trip and it was ok. I liked the proximity to Epcot. We were only there for 2 nights so we didn't get a full lay of the land. Ive always wanted to stay at Beach Club but when we did Yacht Club I didn't see much in the way of a food court? We wanted a quick bite on our arrival day but was informed at Beaches & Cream that you couldn't get in without a reservation. We walked around and found nothing. So we ate at the pool bar and it was just ok. I love the theming, the pool and the proximity to Epcot at the Beach Club. But I feel like at the Boardwalk we'd have the proximity, but also lots of quick dining options and the pool is pretty cool there too. I also don't think my BF and his son will be all that interested in heading out at night and seeing fireworks every single night like I am so I thought that Boardwalk had some options and boardwalk entertainment to keep us busy if we stay "close to home" at night. And I can see the fireworks from there too!
I've been many times, but never at either of these hotels. And I obviously want to impress my BF who this WDW is "just ok" and his son who's never been. So which would you choose and why??
